Amazon.com Review:
Pressure cooking uses pressurized steam to cook healthy meals with beans, grains, meat, poultry, and seafood in much less time than many other cooking methods require. This Splendid pressure cooker holds a maximum capacity of 6 quarts of Italian chicken soup or beans with sausage and works on all heat sources. The cooker is constructed of high-quality 18/10 stainless steel with an encapsulated aluminum base for even and efficient heat distribution. For safety, the pressure cooker has dual pressure settings on its handle--one in a dial control and another on a valve. Other safety measures include two pressure release valves and a locking handle to prevent the unit from opening while under pressure. A visual indicator lets you know when all the pressure has been released and the cooker is ready to open. This pressure cooker is dishwasher-safe. --Cristina Vaamonde

Rating:  - Fagor vs Presto
I have a Presto 4 qt. pressure cooker which I like a lot, but wanted something bigger so I bought the Fagor 6 qt.The inside diameter of the Fagor is 8 3/4" vs 8 3/8" for the Presto, 3/8" difference which may not seem like much, but I cook mostly with stainless steel inserts, bowls and the like, to get the double boiler effect, and it's easier to get the bowls out of the Fagor, a tricky job when they are still hot.But the Fagor makes a hissing sound at a pitch I didn't like at all.So I went ...

Rating: - Nice
The pressure maintains nicely without the old "jiggler".I wish it would have come with a rack and steamer unit.
Rating:  - NOT YOUR GRANDMOTHER'S PRESSURE COOKER
Though I am a pretty basic cook (I can boil water; scrambled eggs are my specialty), the fear that many people have of pressure cookers should be laid to rest with this Fagor.Once you get the hang of it, cooking is as simple as putting all in the pot, closing it, making sure the dial is pointed to "cook" and the lid snap is closed, putting it on the heat and wait for the little yellow bobbie thing to pop up so you can turn down the heat and start your timer. If there's too much steam this mighty ... Read More
Rating:  - Parts keep breaking
We have bought this pressure cooker in Bed Bath and Beyond. In less than a year the lower part of the handle broke, and the replacement costs around $15.
It is now about 3 years since we own this pressure cooker and the valve has broken and it will cost me another $16 to get a replacement part.
I find it very annoying that such an expensive item keeps being costly over time. I guess it is great for Fagor to keep the money flow in, but they sell themselves as beeing "Green", and therefore ... Read More
Rating: - Splendid indeed!
This is an excellent pressure cooker! I bought another cooker before (not by Fagor) and returned it because it did not have manual pressure relilef. This pressure cooker has everything I need and is very fast. I tried several recipes and they are very good. Liked their beefstroganoff very much. My little daughter liked soups. Meat cooks really fast. I use this cooker very often.
